Little Circles
Sideline Series · Move 8 of 16 · 6 each way, each side

Why this one
Small circles challenge the hip stabilizers in every direction and smooth out the whole range.
How to do it
Lift the top leg to hip height and draw small, controlled circles — a few one way, then reverse. Keep the leg long and the torso still.
Keep in mind
Small and controlled — stabilize the pelvis, move only the leg.
Every move: lightly lift your pelvic floor — a gentle lift, never a clench — and breathe slow and full (hold the stretches for about 5 easy breaths, at least 30 seconds). New to the lift? →
